Assignment #1: Self Portrait Artists

Take a little bit of time over the next week and Google self  portrait artists.  Feel free to look at all types of art such as painters, sculptures, photographers, multi-media artists, etc.  See what appeals to you, what makes your heart sing, what makes you stop in your tracks.

Choose the top three artists who are known for their self portraits.  On your class blog that you have created, show examples from each artist. 

Write one (1) paragraph about why you chose that particular artist and that particular self portrait.

Write one (1) about why you think artists and people do self portraits or why you think the 'selfie' is so prevalent in today's society.

So, by next Friday, January 24th at 9 am you will have posted on your class blog:

1.  The names of 3 self portrait artists with an example of the self portrait work of each artist.
2.  One paragraph about why you chose each artist and why you chose the self portrait piece of that artist.
3.  One paragraph about why you think artists do self portraits or why you think the selfie is so prevalent in today's society.

We will use your blogs in our class discussion. 

If you have the information posted on the blog by 9am you will receive a 100.  If you do not have the information posted on the blog by 9am you will receive a 0. 

Remember there are no late assignments accepted or extra credit assignments accepted in this class.
